About the Project
In an ongoing effort to provide quality wireless service, Verizon Wireless has identified your community as one that will benefit from improved network coverage.

The proposal is for a 150-foot monopole and will include ground equipment required to operate the facility.
This equipment will be located at the base of the structure in a secure fenced area. Verizon Wireless will be the first wireless carrier to locate on the proposed tower.

LCPS staff is hosting a public briefing regarding River Bend Middle School Cellular Tower Proposal on Monday, May 13th @ 6:00 pm in the River Bend MS Cafeteria. The briefing will consist of a short presentation followed by a question and answer time.
